(Segue for you construction experts. On RV are the interior and fiberglass exterior panel "bonded" to the wall framing with some kind of construction adhesive ?)
Old school = 1" x 2" (nominal) wood frame with some horizontal framing. Fiberglass batt insulation.
Newer = 1" x 2" (nominal) wood frame with some horizontal framing. Expanded or extruded foam insulation.
Newest = Aluminum tubing frame (may have joints backed with wood inserts, may have some horizontal aluminum framing) Expanded or extruded foam. Typically, composite construction where interior and exterior panels are pinch rolled or thermal set with adhesive onto frame.
